If I could make all dreams come true,
for each and every one of you.
If I could make your troubles fade,
like morning mist on a summers' day.
If I could banish all these fears,
and make your life bereft of tears.
If I could give you back what's yours,
that Oneness which your heart adores.
I would forever be content,
this fleeting life has been well spent.

If I could awake you from these dreams,
so that you can see what may be seen.
Such that your scope is wide and far,
with happiness beyond the stars.
If I could make all men know what's true,
and end the wars that fight in you.
If I could bring deep abiding peace,
to every living man and beast.
I surely would, I surely would,
if I only could.

I can tell you what may be known;
the purest white of virgin snow,
the universe at rest in mind,
the kindness dwelling in all mankind,
the glory of the dawn,
that gentle light of morn',
the little child; look in his eyes,
why would he ever need to cry.
Why should that blissful smile,
only last a passing while?

We see, and hear, and taste, and feel,
these earthly joys, the fear of hell.
And now immersed in all of this,
shall we forget Your deep abiding bliss?
When will we hear that voice inside,
knowing all, and in all abides.
He speaks so quiet, like gentle rain,
when will we hear His voice again?_________________David

Before the beginning
not non existence, not existence either
not mind, not no mind either
with no mind, no place for desire
with no place for desire
no act of creation, with no act of creation
no divine beings, with no divine beings
no elements, with no elements
no creatures.
You are immutable, without change
not any of these, not any can be
or not be, without You
before this One, beyond a darkness
enveloped in a darkness
greater than absence of light
You are there, where there is no where
not knowing, not not knowing
with no mind, and not no mind
to remember._________________David

Is it so that sound is more profound than any word,
just as all movement may be found to be one dance?
Where notes combine with harmony as in a chord,
conjoin with words and reach into the hearts of all.

Then it is no mystery to find Parmenides'
ancient words of knowledge, in poetry are enshrined.
As too the Vedic hymn of creation thus describes,
that primeval state which cannot be expressed.

And could one unspoken sound create all these worlds,
before its utterance, what before was there, which did exist,
and caused this mind to become, with thoughts unfurled,
enveloped in darkness; by what are all these beings kissed?

A conundrum perchance to be unwound,
but not by mind or thought will He be found._________________David

I know not whether to stand
in the feeling of Your presence
or humbly bow and sit at Your feet.
My mind would grasp your shadow
and my heart would open so wide
that Your universe is lost inside.
And then perhaps we might meet
with the Joy of finding You again
so great that I would lose myself
in Your far shining light of light._________________David
